Help! - FP design

[Brand]

I really need to do two things in Frontpage 2003 that I'm
having difficulty with. I seem to remember doing these
things when I used FP98, but I could be mistaken.

1. I need my images/ pictures to fade out or roll-over to
another image every so many seconds. Using a set of images
I choose and then repeat. While sounding a basic idea I
can't seem to do this in FP2003.

2. I need sub-menu's. My Navigation pane is set up to show
pages as sub sets of main Nav menu items but I would like
the main item to show a sub-menu when the mouse hovers
over them. I cant seem to get FP Behaviors to do this.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

I believe both can be easily accomplished using javascript. I use javascript
to swap images on my site. Take a look here-

Do a google search for javascript and you'll find plenty of sites where you
can get free cut-and-paste script for your pages.

Good luck!

Hi,
for the 1st one you'd need to make your 2 images then set a timer to do the
rollover, using the FP swap image behavior basic principle would be
<script type="text/javascript">
setTimeout("FP_swapImg(1,0,/*id*/'img1',/*url*/'pic.jpg')", 5000);
</script>
This will fire the swap image after 5 seconds.

For the second you can use the stock FP change property behavior or you can
use my menu behaviors

Jon, you da man!

Thank you, looked at your site and when I can lean it all,
its great.

As my cocky and arrogant programmer cousin says; I am
a "user", not a code writer. Like most, I bought FP for
that reason. I'm weak, to say the least, in any html
coding.

how're things in Blighty? ...

Thanks again, I'll experiment.

Regards
